Sweet penalty for hitting too hard. He was a receiver 4 yards earlier when he caught the ball, not so much there.
Like, there was nothing the defender could do... Is he supposed to stop what he is doing and then get run over by the receiver?
No longer a receiver after taking 3 steps, lowers head and braces himself, shoulder takes contact as DB went lower.
Bad, bad call.
Bad, bad call.
Not sure I agree KC has a much better chance than Pitt against Denver and I don't know that KC is better than Cincy with Dalton. These Cincy injuries are piling up, though.
Once again a team does jack shit offensively for a half and finds itself with a very manageable deficit. Let's see if Cincy gets their shit together.
Right; you can't lead with your helmet, can't hit helmet to helmet, can't hit a player high, can't leave your feet, can't hit shoulder to shoulder.
You CAN hit him here, above the waist below the shoulder, not in the middle of the body, not too far to the right, right here, this two inch square area.
THAT is a legal hit.
Give McCarron a stiff shot of whatever the Red Sox used in the 2004 ALCS. He looks as nervous as a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs.
So the NFC is going win the SB right? None of these teams today are any good at all, the Broncos aren't much better and the Pats are too injured.
I don't think any of these teams' offenses will consistently move the ball in DEN, including PIT. The team that has the ability to create turnovers and completely stifle the DEN offense has a chance... I think that's KC.
Depends on matchups. And Pats can get healthy due to this week off, play next week, an extra day off for AFC title game if they win, then another week off if they get to SB.
KC is more well balanced but honestly these AFC teams are shit. How can we be intimidated by a KC team that beat up on a bunch of lousy teams to rack up their win streak. If we can't beat them we'd get rolled in the superbowl anyway. TB is not Hoyer.
Whatever happens happens.

NFC has plenty of flawed teams too. No clear favorites this year. Should be a pretty entertaining, wide open playoffs.
Certainly seems like Carolina, Arizona or Seattle should be the favorite over any of these teams in a neutral venue. This year has really taught us though that you just cannot draw conclusions about teams based on how they looked the week before -- good or bad.
6-0 halftime score doesn't get your juices going?
I think if the pats make it, they will be a 3 pt favorite. Pick em At the worst
What the hell happened to CBS? They use to cover football pretty well. The announcers, sideline reports, camera work, and Mike Carey suck.
Camera work lately has been especially suspect. Glaring lack of replays on penalties. Though that may be by design (league "mandate"?)
Well, yeah. Unpredictable would have been a better word choice. Though that doesn't really apply to today either, at least thus far.
